The Comparative Method cover

Charles C. Ragin's The Comparative Method proposes a synthetic strategy, based on an application of Boolean algebra, that combines the strengths of both qualitative and quantitative sociology. Elegantly accessible and germane to the work of all the social sciences, and now updated with a new introduction, this book will continue to garner interest, debate, and praise.

"Scarcely a word in this forcefully argued book is ill spent." * American Journal of Sociology *
"Presents a methodological strategy designed to transcend [the] general approaches." * Social Forces *
